This is what the people who claim to identify with the average American wear.

What we need is someone with a superior brain. After 8 years being led by the intellectually inferior and ideologically rabid.

(BTW, the truth, and you know it, is that if Palin were a Democrat she’d have been ripped to shreds about qualifications, clothing, teenage mothers… Limbaugh, O’Reilly, Ingraham, and the rest that nasty crowd would have doused her in vitriol and set her alight by now. Somehow, the ‘Liberal Media’ is just not much interested)

PartiallyDeflected, If a designer chooses to donate clothes, that’s up to them. Don’t know if it’s true or not.
But if someone donates money for a particular candidate to help get them elected and the money is used instead for one of the candidates clothes, purchased at hugely over priced stores, then I would take issue with that.

Ah, how subtle your jabs at the republicans are.

It’s kind of depressing that fashion plays a part in politics at all. I guess the kids from Clueless were victorious after all.

Sheldon, what you’re missing is that Palin’s clothes were actually paid for – unlike Dem candidates like Hillary who have their clothes given to them by the designers – which would seemingly exceed the campaign contribution limits.

I didn’t know communists, and those have who have blind crushes on them, wore designer clothes…

I think their clothes are a better indicator of who they are than their words.

8. Barack Obama’s preference for Hartmax suits was a boon to sales for the largest suit maker in the U.S.
